OMA writes: “At OMA we are beyond excited and proud to present you K3! The K3 Turntable is a seven year international project involving the collaboration of some of the world’s most talented and distinguished engineers, designers and fabricators. Our goal was to redefine the turntable and vinyl playback, setting a new bar for performance by completely re-imagining how a turntable/tonearm can be made.”
“Completely new materials (cast hypo-eutectic gray iron, SLM laser printed tonearm) were used, guided by FEA and other advanced analysis conducted by Bucknell University. New techniques for vibration resonance and control were developed for the turntable chassis, platter, tone arm and its mounting platform. The results can be measured and, most importantly, heard as an almost shocking transparency into what’s actually in the grooves of our records.”
